I will begin and end this brief review the same way:
One of the WORST books I have EVER read in my life.
Pure drivel - how many times can he write glory to god, we worship and glorify god, we enjoy god, delight in god, etc. etc.
I've read books with a religious bent that I find very well written. Even though I am not religious, I respect how they feel and the philosophy they are sharing. This book is truly just nonsense. That first sentence I wrote - that's pretty much how the whole book reads. Completely unoriginal, uninspiring and if I felt on the fence about "God" before, well this author wants to make me run from even saying the word God. In fact it's almost like he had to qualify for a minimum word count w/a teacher in elementary school and peppered the book with the word God as many times as possible.
In summary, a purpose driven life, according to the author, is one where you worship, glorify and delight in God. Everything is God.
I was toying w/the idea of going to some services w/a friend but after having read this book, I can't stomach the thought of sitting in a room voluntarily with someone like him.
In closing as I began, one of the WORST books I have EVER read in my life.
I think this book is wonderful. Anyone who does not like this book does not have the right frame of mind or their heart to accept the most important message here...God loves us and will always love us. How can you be angry at that?
